State i lived in: CA
13years ago, i got convicted petty theft 490.1 conviction= INFRACTION for $40
Recently now, i got citation for second offense petty theft 484/488pc citation with MISDEMEANOR charge, court date 2/10/09. $110
questions:
1. If i plead guilty: will they convicted me as FELONY charge (California 3 strikes). and am i going to jail?
2. Anyway i can reduct second charge to INFRACTION again or diversion program to dismiss the case?
Thanks
